‘Fair Wage’ Pizza Parlor Touting ‘Economic Justice’ Shuts Down

A “fair wage” pizza shop in Boston touting “economic justice” will close its doors after failing to make a profit.

The Boston Globereports that Dudley Dough, which is billed as a pizza parlor “with a purpose,” will close in a few months after two years in business because the shop could not make any money after paying its employees above-market wages.

“The challenge for Dudley Dough was to support itself,” said Bing Broderick, executive director of the nonprofit Haley House, which oversees the shop.

Note to the laid-off employees of Dudley Dough, there is no such thing as a “fair wage," there are market wages that is all.

This what happens when you attempt to overrule Mother Nature. It's like making pizza with plastic bags.
